2000 F-body Clutch, not fully releasing

[SSmike1]

i called and they sent me to a CNC machining company,
who does their rebuild kits now.
CNC = 1-619-275-1663 = phone #
and they wanted $35 for the rebuild kit 910ML
for the 2004 Era MCLEOD Master Cylinder...

mcleod does not sell or give them away anymore.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE HELP!!!!!!!

now that you posted that its a mcleod.......it might be due for a rebuild if you cant bleed the air out! They actually discontinued that model and upgraded to what was supposed to be more reliable and equivalent to the Tick master. That pipe dream failed and now they no longer make them but if you call 714-630-3668 or 714-630-2764, you can order a rebuild kit for it free of charge which includes a new rubber cup which is what usually fails in their master causing the air in the line.

Anyone know if that Tick master will work with a LT1 style slave?

I'm still running the stock master/slave and would like to upgrade to something better.

I'd give them a call. The Tick is a 7/8 bore too.

i installed the New PUCK in tonight, as a rebuild.
I'll re-install the master Cylinder friday night.

THANKS PAT.

No problem Mike

[SSmike1]

well, It is NOT the Master Cylinder.
I put the rebuilt master in, same thing exactly.

will be pulling the tranny out tomorrow morning!

I noticed that when i reconnected the Hydraulic line back into the SLAVE Cylinder,
the slave cylinder was LOOSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

that has to be the problem, the Slave Cylinder went bad, somehow.
Ill have it out tomorrow morning.

[GTSLOW]

Maybe if you'd learn how to operate a vehicle with a clutch correctly you wouldn't have this problem?


Buy the freaking complete tick/monster kit with EVERYTHING and be done with it!!!

[wrencher]

Hope it didn't break the slave.
I ran into that once with another car. What a pain, definately was a wierd problem too.

[SSmike1]

WELL, it is the Pressure Plate. I got the tranny out, and the Pressure plate is broken. That piece was Inside there , Preventing the the Pressure Plate from Coming far enough away from the Flywheel, it kept Drag on the clutch.
see pic.
What Clutch do i get? LS2 clutch?
All i do is Road Race the car.

THANKS

Those things usually sound like a maraca when they bust!

No to the LS2 it's a piece of shit. Here is a complete LS7 clutch/pp/flywheel to put into an LS1 Fbody for $459.
